Hi Cherry,
Welcome to the forum.
Care to tell us more? Was it your first visit? What did you play? Did you lose more than you could afford? What lessons did you learn that might be useful to us?
Psalm 25:16 Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. Proverbs 18:2 A fool finds no satisfaction in trying to understand, for he would rather express his own opinion.

Welcome Cherry.
Loses happen. So do winning sessions. Good luck.

Better to have a substantial early loss than a substantial early lucky win. A far more insightful lesson.
But we don't know the measure of your loss. It may have been haircut money or it might have been your 401k. Maybe more info would be helpful as a salutary lesson to any would-be gambling addicts that find the thread.

Welcome to WOV. :) So sorry you lost everything in a bad session. But what concerns me is that it seems you lost money you needed. Is there a way you can postpone the payments that the lost money was for?

Look on the bright side, Cherry: now you have less money for a thief to rob you of.

Could be worse: you could have been devoured by a grizzly bear, an alligator, or a maniacal cannibal.

Much like a kidney stone, this too shall pass.

Have some compassion sir. Your attempt at humor is insulting. This poor individual obviously lost more than they could afford and is in great distress and you are trying to make alligator jokes about it. Shame on you. Perhaps this person is looking for some compassion. Perhaps this person wants to shed some light on how not to gamble. Perhaps this person is looking for some advice. Perhaps this person is looking for someone to bail them out. Are you offering to help?

I need someone to help clean out two storage units next week. $10 an hour and you get to keep whatever I don't want. If you have a smart phone, I will buy you a sandwich and coke for lunch. No phone and I will give you $2 towards lunch.

Yet you support $15 hr. Min. Wage laws. I guess when you're not paying.....lol. Is that a 12 oz. or 20 oz. coke? Will overtime get someone a Big Gulp? $2 sounds like a ribeye and a 16 oz. at the Dollar Tree. So just letting people know phone or not, sounds like the same deal providing you bring your own 2 slices of bread.

I appreciate your devotion, misguided though it maybe. If you really want to get close to me, diamonds and high grade Silver Age Marvels are the way to go. Perhaps you could point out where I supported a $15 minimum wage? Ever?I really don't mind people lying about most things but when someone lies about me, I call them for it.
To recap- Diamonds good, lies not so much.

$10 an hour is pretty average. :)

Can I do this remotely from the east coast?

I assume that’s why you require the cell phone. You’d just put me on face time and I’d help you sift through items that way.

You can mail me the sandwich.

I'm not trying to be sarcastic, but more dry and deadpan when I write the next sentence. That is exactly why the word sad is in the thread title.

I often wonder what happens to people who take the time to sign up, make a post and then are never heard from again. Yes Cherry might return but why the long delay? Perhaps there was more to this message and it was a cry for help. Maybe we will never know.
